Allah has sent us to this world for a purpose, and the purpose is nothing but to worship Him and do righteous deeds to seek His pleasure. And the religion He wants us to follow is one of total submission and obedience - and a complete way of life. And Allah says:“Oh mankind! Worship your Lord (Allah), Who created you and those who were before you so that you may acquire Taqwa.” (Surah Al-Baqara: 21)

Our final destination is The Aakhirah, and we have time to accumulate ibadah(worship Allah SWT) and do good deeds only till we die. And we don't even have a known prescribed time for this, unlike the example above! It can be anytime, anywhere. If we are consistent in the remembrance of Allah, we will be prepared when Malak-ul-Mauth approaches, and it is time for us to leave. (May Allah Bless us to die in a high state of emaan, aameen) We should use our provisions that Allah has blessed us with, in a way that will please Him, all the while staying on the right path, without going farther from our road to our final abode, Jannah.
Allah SWT says in the Qur'an:
“Verily! It is Allah Who causes the seed grain and the fruit stone to split and sprout. He brings forth the living from the dead, and it is He Who brings forth the dead from the living. Such is Allah, then how are you deluded away from the truth.” (Surah Al-An'am: 95)

In Islam, Yawm al-Qiyāmah "the Day of Resurrection" (Arabic: يوم القيامة) or Yawm ad-Din "the Day of Judgment" (Arabic: يوم الدين) is believed to be God's final assessment of humanity. al-Qiyama is also the name of the 75th Sura of the Qur'an.' The sequence of events (according to the most commonly-held belief) is: the annihilation of all creatures, resurrection of the body, and the judgment of all sentient creatures. The exact time when these events will occur is unknown, however there are said to be major[1] and minor signs[2] which, according to Islam, are to occur near the time of Qiyamah (End time).
Final judgment forms one of the main themes of the Qur'an. Many Qur'anic verses, especially the earlier ones, are dominated by the idea of the nearing of the day of resurrection.[3][4]
